The high temperature relaxation in cold-rolled Ti (CR-Ti) and commercial pure Ti (CP-Ti) has been investigated using internal friction apparatus operating in forced oscillations from room temperature to 650°C. It is shown that there is an internal friction peak at around 510°C for the CR-Ti and there is no 510°C internal friction peak in the CP-Ti. The internal friction peak shows typical features of phase transformation in the CR-Ti. It is tentatively suggested that this peak is due to the ordering of disordered lattices resulted from cold-rolling. The high temperature background damping (HTBD) in the CP-Ti is much lower than that in the CR-Ti. It is concluded that the HTBD is related to the microstructure observed inside the grains and does not dependent on grain size.

The internal friction of a cold-rolled Fe-Mn-Si alloy has been investigated using a multifunctional internal friction apparatus though forced vibration method from room temperature to 950 °C. It has been shown that an internal friction peak is found on the IF-T curves during first heating at around 640 °C for the cold-rolled Fe-Mn-Si alloy. The internal friction peak is confirmed to be crystallizing peak of amorphous. The amorphous is resulted from the cold-rolling of the Fe-Mn-Si alloy.

Most of the studies on phase transformation in metallic materials have focused on transformations during cooling processes due to the easiness of the conservation of the product phase. However, for phase transformation happening during heating processes, the experimental investigations have been indirect if the product high temperature phase could not be preserved to the convenient observation temperature, for example the room temperature. The high density Electric Current Pulse (ECP) treatment allows the phase transformation during heating process and the preservation of the high temperature phase to the room temperature, offering possibilities for direct experimental examinations. Thus, in the present work, a cold-rolled Cu–40%Zn alloy was ECP treated and the microstructure of the product phase and the transformation orientation relationship were investigated. Results show that during the ECP treatment, the high temperature beta phase with BCC structure formed in the parent alpha phase with FCC structure. Especially, two kinds of orientation relationships could be detected between the parent alpha phase and the product beta precipitates. The one is the Kurdjumov-Sachs orientation relationship (K-S OR), and the other is the Nishiyama-Wasserman (N-W). In addition, the amount of beta precipitates obeying the K-S OR is more than that of precipitates obeying the N-W OR. The results of this work provide new fundamental information on phase transformation of metallic materials.

In a hydrogen-doped metallic glass, there appear low-temperature and high-temperature internal friction peaks respectively associated with a point-defect relaxation and the crystallization. The high-temperature-side slope of low-temperature peak and also the low-temperature-side slope of high-temperature peak enhance the background internal friction near the room temperature. A hydrogen-doped Mg-base metallic glass was proposed as a high-damping material to be used near and somewhat above the room temperature. Stability of the high damping was also checked.

By using a low frequency inverted torsion pendulum, the high temperature internal friction spectra of Al-0.02wt%Zr and Al-0.1wt%Zr alloys were investigated respectively. In Al-0.02wt%Zr alloy, the conventional grain boundary internal friction peak (Pg) is observed with some small unstable peaks. In Al-0.1wt%Zr alloy, the bamboo peak is observed to appear at the high temperature side of the conventional grain boundary internal friction peak. The conventional grain boundary internal friction peak decreased and moved to higher temperature. The bamboo peak owns an activation energy of 1.75eV. When average grain size exceeded the diameter of samples, Pb strength was reduced and its position was shifted to a lower temperature. Based on the grain boundary sliding model, Pg and Pb peaks were explained. Their dependence on annealing temperature and time was determined by considering the effects of contained Ce atoms and other impurities on the relaxation across grain boundary.

Nb–silicide in situ composites have great potential for high-temperature turbine applications. Nb–silicide composites consist of a ductile Nb-based solid solution together with high-strength silicides, such as Nb5Si3and Nb3Si. With the appropriate addition of alloying elements, such as Ti, Hf, Cr, and Al, it is possible to achieve a promising balance of room-temperature fracture toughness, high-temperature creep performance, and oxidation resistance. In Nb–silicide composites generated from metal-rich binary Nb-Si alloys, Nb3Si is unstable and experiences eutectoid decomposition to Nb and Nb5Si3. At high Ti concentrations, Nb3Si is stabilized to room temperature, and the eutectoid decomposition is suppressed. However, the effect of both Ti and Hf additions in quaternary alloys has not been investigated previously. The present article describes the discovery of a low-temperature eutectoid phase transformation during which (Nb)3Si decomposes into (Nb) and (Nb)5Si3, where the (Nb)5Si3possesses the hP16 crystal structure, as opposed to the tI32 crystal structure observed in binary Nb5Si3. The Ti and Hf concentrations were adjusted over the ranges of 21 to 33 (at.%) and 7.5 to 33 (at.%) to understand the effect of bulk composition on the phases present and the eutectoid phase transformation.

Fracture toughness KIc and four-point bending strength σc at high temperature (up to 1500 °C) of Y2O3 ceramics of various grain size were measured. The ceramics were prepared by pressureless air sintering and next hot isostatic pressing of high purity (99.99%) Y2O3 powder. Relative density of about 99 % was achieved. Photos of microstructures revealed small pores distributed mainly inside grains. For smallest grain size (2 - 9 μm) ceramics KIc and σc are almost constant from 20 ° to 1200 °C and next they decrease. For biggest grain size (about 44 μm) they increase up to 800 °C and next they keep constant up to 1200 °C. The micrographs analyses of fracture surfaces indicated that transgranular mode of fracture at room temperature changes to almost intergranular at higher temperatures.

In the present work we have studied the high-temperature shape memory alloys based on the Ru-Nb system by using two mechanical spectrometers working in temperature ranges from 200 to 1450ºC and -150 to 900ºC. We have studied internal friction peaks linked to the martensitic transformations in the range from 300 to 1200ºC. In addition, we have evidenced another internal friction peak at lower temperature than the transformations peaks, which apparently exhibits the behaviour of a thermally activated relaxation peak, but in fact is a strongly time-dependent peak. We have carefully studied this peak and discussed its microscopic origin, concluding that it is related to the interaction of some structural defects with martensite interfaces. Finally, we perform a complete analysis of the whole internal friction spectrum, taking into account the possible relationship between the time-dependent peak and the martensitic transformation behaviour.

The PZT-PMN ceramics system was derived from Pb(Zr0.5Ti0.5)O3 and Pb(Mg2/3Nb1/3)O3 based compositions those obtained via the columbite method. The effect of MnO2 addition on microstructure, physical properties and piezoelectric properties were investigated. In this study, the composition with PZT/PMN ratio of 1:1 was selected. To observe the effect of MnO2 adding, its concentration was varied in range 0-10 mol%. Green pellets were sintered at temperature 1250oC for 4 hours. For piezoelectric investigation, the ceramics pellets were subjected to a poling process. The XRD results show that there is no phase transformation observed for all sintered PZT-PMN samples with presence of MnO2. The SEM micrographs reveal that MnO2 can enhance sinterability as evidenced by lowering of porosity and increasing of grain size with increasing of MnO2 content. Increasing of linear shrinkage and apparent densities also confirmed such effect. Improvement of d33 from 28 to 114 pC/N could only found for MnO2 in range 0 to 4 mol%. For higher MnO2 content, there is only slightly increased. However, increasing of kp with increasing of MnO2 is clearly observed. While dielectric constant measured at room temperature and at frequency 1 kHz is higher for ceramics without MnO2 doping and it decreases with increasing MnO2 concentration. The temperature dependence of relative dielectric constant go to peak of value about 6000 at temperature around 180oC and shifting of these peaks with frequency can only be observed for samples with higher MnO2 content. This indicates a normal ferroelectric behavior for sample with lower MnO2 and there are converted to relaxor after MnO2 increased.

A reverse martensitic phase transformation was observed in Nb-enriched Nb-Co multilayers induced by room temperature 200 ke V xenon ion mixing. Further experiments revealed that this bcc-fcc transition proceeds in two steps, i.e., bcc-hcp and hcp-fcc. A crystallographic model is proposed to explain the two-step transition through shearing and sliding, which are mediated by irradiation-induced defects and strain in the films. In addition, the existence of the hcp and fcc metastable states in the Nb-Co system was confirmed by high-temperature solid state interdiffusion of the corresponding multilayers.
